Describes the computation of mathematical functions in decimal arithmetic, including coverage of 256-bit floating-point formats

Covers a major part of the NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions, with highly accurate implementations in up to 10 floating-point formats

Describes implementation in the C programming language, and also provides interfaces to Ada, C#, C++, Fortran, Java, and Pascal

Pays extensive attention to little-understood aspects of floating-point and integer arithmetic, and to software portability, including to important historical architectures
